Good Morning!!!

Well yesterday was Thanksgiving for the US and alot of us are suffering from TURKEY OVERLOAD! LOL!

Anyhoo we have a new challenge for you at Digitally Sweet and it's an inspiration photo

And we are being sponsored by Lunagirl, Check out the images, fun and easy to work with!

Made it with MDS2. I used four Lunagirl images. the single bird, the pic of two birds, the flower and the key with lock.

Sweet Pea Stamper's

The challenge over at Sweet Pea Stamper's is add alot of texture.

You don't have to use a Sweet Pea Stamp but why not?!

The have some fantastic stamps for every occasion and alot of different artists.

I used an image called 'The Gift' by Norma Burnell.

The two frames are dry embossed with a cuttlebug folder. I colored my image with prisma colored pencils, micro beads on the ornament, liquid pearls and some bling from my stash. The frame for my SU sentiment is a stamp with a matching punch from SU. (I had these perfect little square gold beads that were perfect for the neckline on her dress.)

CWLC with Lunagirl

The challenge at Created With Love Challenges was to make project with miss you or sympathy. I made a sympathy card for my friend that just lost her Grandmother. My image is a Lunagirl image and if you love everything vintage like I do, you will check out her images.

Her images are so easy to work with, the images are already colored or ready for a card.

in fact this is the second time I photographed it. (I felt guilty that it didn't take long at all so I added the butterflies from SU, Which is a stamp and matching punch. LOL!)

My DP is from Hobby Lobby.

Flutterby Wednesday

This is Flutterby Wednesday's 262nd challenge!

I'm almost too late but for this week they have a sketch

I altered it just a bit to accommodate my cute little 'Walnut Fairy' by Helena Reis at Sweet Pea Stamps. Part of my DSP is from SU and part I got at Hobby Lobby. My border punch is from SU as well as the butterflies. Added stickles on her wings.

 (don't forget your fairy or butterfly.)

Good morning and it's time for a new challenge at Lasting Memories. This week is pretty easy, it's called Christmas Traditions. My LO doesn't have any pictures because the picture I want is in with my decorations and I haven't pulled them out yet!

My ornaments and my snowflake flower are a stamp and matching punch from SU. I made both the leaf flourishes from the cricut using 'Joys Of The Season' cartridge. I used a grand nestabilities die cut for my frame.

Good Morning Everyone!

This week at Digitally Sweet we have an ANYTHING GOES and we are being sponsored by the talented Lacy Sunshine

Heather was generous enough to give us all a digi to work with but I already had the perfect ones

I chose 'Scrolled Snow Globe digi bits' and 'Eleanor and Pickles Magical Flight'

After I colored and assembled my snow globe, I colored and inserted Eleanor and Pickle's Magical Flight.

With my MDS2 I added a sentiment and watermarked a circle to make it look like a bubble in the globe. The snowflakes in the globe are part of the digi bits and I made some embossed snowflakes on the snow on top and changed the shadow to blue

I colored with paintbrush.

My DP is from SU. The bird and the butterflies are a matching stamp and punch from SU also. The leaves and bling are from my stash.

I removed the background from the bird and the key in WORD.

Unicorn

Hi!

I won a stamp from Sweet Pea for my answer on Facebook and I love this along with the others so it was hard to choose but I love all the flourishes so I chose 'Karen Middleton's Unicorn Heart'

I entered two challenges 'Flutterby Wednesday's' Add the color brown and your fairy or butterfly.

At 'Sweet Pea' was to make a remembrance or thinking of you creation.

I wanted my unicorn magical but not like my pretty pony, not that I don't think 'My Pretty Pony' is pretty but I think I've grown out of that! LOL!

Flourish die cut is from SU along with the butterfly stamp and matching punch and the DP. Colored it with prisma colored pencils. Bling from my stash and I added stickels to the heart and the horn.

Lasting Memories #165

Good Morning!

It's time for a new challenge at Lasting Memories!

It's called 'Creative Space' so I created a LO digitally of my go to places for scrapbooking and card making.

I used my digital software from SO (MDS2)

DSC #61

At Digitally Sweet Challenges we are challenged by this sketch

We are being sponsored by Lunagirl, fabulous vintage images

Here's what I created using 1a and my MDS2 from Stampin Up.

ONE SWEET CHALLENGE

The November challenge at 'One Sweet Challenge' is

focus on one color, focus on a certain embellishment or lots os images of the same theme.

I tried to do all three. I used Ching Chou's kuik 'Seahorse' and 'Seahorse Illusion'. My color is purple and my embellishments are a SU, framelit die (the leaves look like sea growth to me) It's a triple easel card and my little easel in the front is a frame punch also from SU, I colored my images with prisma colored pencils.

Flower Pot Pretty 'Holly'

This a Lacy Sunshine Stamp call 'Holly' Flower Pot Pretty. Isn't she just adorable?!

This was a PNG so I made my own background in MDS2, drop shadowed it in WORD because in WORD it drop shadows just the digi and in MDS2 it drop shadows the whole square palette it is on. I printed it out and then colored it with prisma colored pencils.

At 'Suzy Bee's Bloomin Challenges (which is their very first challenge) we were to add embossing so I made an easel card and used a folder from cuttlebug.

At 'Created With Love Challenges' were to add Christmas Reds and Greens.

At '613 Avenue Create' is an 'Anything Goes' with no optional twist.

Flutterby Wednesday

We were challenged to add a winged creature to our project at Flutterby Wednesday so since it's almost Thanksgiving, I made a card with a stamp from SU that I love.

All my stamps are from SU. My decal and pheasant were fussy cut out and I colored them in various spots with prisma. The butterflies were colored in various spots with prisma also, but they were punched out using a coordinating punch from SU. I made my sentiment on WORD and cut it out with a cuttlebug folder then of course I added stickles.

Digi Darla #87

This is not digital or hybrid.

Sweet Pea Stampers

At Sweet Pea Stampers we are challenged to make a halloween creation and I chose 'Pumpkin Pixie' by Ching Chou.
